Hi all
At present I'm not happy with my front end, and am looking at buying a low level cabinet to house everything and allow me to have a large projection screen...presently my Blok AV rack would obscure the lowest part of any screen
However, the width of my living room means that I have little room to play with, if I go for a cabinet I then have a problem siting the subwoofer (and it can't go anywhere else in the room).
So I was thinking of getting a cabinet made which will house the subwoofer in a centre section as well as my separates. The type of cabinet I'm thinking of is as follows:

...but with the centre section made wider so I can fit in my DD-15 on a gramma.
I understand this could cause all sorts of problems with reflections etc....but I wondered, does anyone know how big a problem this would really be? Would love to hide the subwoofer away if at all possible.
The other option is to go for something like this:

With this type of cabinet I'd be able at least to have my subwoofer across the front with all my other kit, there's just enough room.
Any thoughts or advice?
Thanks
Matt
